Wingman change?
This horse has been beaten to death, everyone talks about it so here's my thoughts on it. This game is amazing, having 8 unique characters really makes each battle more fun, but their is one dreadfu...

1. Extended mag can stay just make it lower ammo capacity at start while with max it should be 6, that way it wont be super deadly at early stages and at endgame it wont be spray and pray for high reward.
2. Damage is fine as it is, its just that ADS is same as no ADS and huge magazine.
3.There could be if you ADS it gets accuracy buff in 0.5s that gets canceled while out of ADS, that buff would make it same accuracy as it is now. I admit at super close range it is way too good while hipfiring but it might be because you have 12shots and thats quite a lot to spray and pray.
4.There is damage fall off in terms of it cant headshot past certain distance, for wingman it is 250m, snipers have 750m and AR have 300m.Also wingman has way slower shots than longbow or triple take so they are easier to hit long distance enemies.
5.Mozambique , RE-45 and P2020 are supposed to be trash. Other weapons are viable on its own already with maybe flatline and alternator exception, but even they can melt enemy face if you can get over their *.

I get the idea of "some guns are supposed to be trash" but at the same time, making certain guns unusable just makes for a bad experience with way less diversity. And after doing some testing I was able to crank out 4 shots in 1 second using the wingman, meaning it can do anywhere between 180 - 400 DPS per second. I'd just like the game to be in a more unique stat without a super hard defined meta. The best way would be to nerf the wingman, apply small buffs to various other guns and add more hop ups and guns as time goes but currently the game is in a heavily Wingman / Peacekeeper meta right now, with those 2 guns being 75% of what I see people carrying around.
